Their are still some free agents remaining, containing Zdeno Chara, Calvin De Haan, Loui Eriksson, Keith Yandle and a few others still remain, but two names stick out the most.
A former Norris Trophy winner by the name of P.K Subban, and the best goal-scoring forward currently available by the name of Evan Rodriguez who went on a goal scoring tear last season for the Pittsburgh Penguins.
One of those two who stick out has finally found their new home...
